FROM STAFF REPORTS

NEWINGTON — USA Training Centers has announced that Ken Jobin of Manchester has joined USA Training Centers and USA Mavericks club team.

Jobin graduated from Manchester Memorial High School in 1992. He attended the University of New Hampshire, graduating in 1997, pitching for the Division I Wildcats, where he earned all-conference status. Jobin brings 18 years of overall baseball experience. Jobin played professionally for the Nashua Pride in the Can Am League. In 2009, Jobin was appointed a major league scout for the Milwaukee Brewers. Also in 2010, he served as a scout for the Los Angeles Angels. He spent two years as a pitching coach at New England College during the 2010-2011 seasons.

As an instructor, Jobin brings strong experience on and off the field. He owned and operated Frozen Ropes Hooksett from 2005-2011, where he managed the NH Hammerhead Club program. His six years’ experience owning and operating Frozen Ropes is a huge hire to the operations here at USA Training Centers.

“Our goal is to add quality personnel, like Jobin, to our Mavericks program. Kenny will help take us to the next level here at USA Training Centers,” said Dave Hoyt, owner and operator of USA Training Centers. “I have known Kenny for over 20 years and he has a strong love for the game of baseball which is only matched by his passion to watch those that he has instructed to succeed on and off the field.”

Jobin will serve as one of the pitching instructors here at USA Training Centers. He will be a head coach on two of the Mavericks Club teams.
